And that's pretty much the moment of the match.
No, because what that means is that Australia's focus on losing to a team that we consider a minnow is also not based in fact.
It means that we've been...
like roundly defeated by two teams that deserve to progress it's not even a kind of a a one-off shock it's like no they're just they're just better at cricket in this format um and let's all point fingers at everybody else i would like to know what steve smith was thinking as he was watching that game um i'm a celebrity get me out of here
Did you notice that, yeah, I mean, the last point here is sad beers, but did you notice that Josh Inglis came in at three?
I think Green's been coming in at three, hasn't he, for this tournament?
Or am I just being another Aussie with a casual connection to this?
Right, so similar starts in both games, but in the second one Inglis comes in at three.
You know, I mean, there was a pretty decent case to be made for dropping Cam Green after the last game.
They retained him.
He bowled two overs, none for 11.
So wonderful economy rate, I suppose.
And then Inglis came in at three, who hasn't really lit it up either in the tournament.
And Steve Smith sits on the pine.
I just thought that was an interesting one.
And, yeah, Zampa made some comments after the game as player of the match.
One of the great rewards of being player of the match is that he has to now speak for the feelings of the team.
But he says, I guess we're renowned for being good tournament players and teams, but I think since we won in 2021, we kind of get through the World Cup really disappointed.
In 22 and 24, particularly those two teams, I think we probably should have given it a nudge
and got close to winning it.
